According
to BBC News, Iran sides with Syria when Israeli military fired at the Iranian
military infrastructure in Syria. Iran and Israel have always been enemies but
have never engaged in war. Iran was originally in Syria to help Syrian military
fight against rebel troops, however Iran now has to respond to Israel’s threat
and act immediately. Iran responds on TV by disapproving Israel’s actions and
encouraging Syria to fight back and defend themselves. He mentions that Israel
feels the need to always create tension in the region because they cannot stand
peace. However, I found it interesting that during this TV response he mentions
nothing about Iran military in Syria. This was shocking because according to Israel
their actions are directed at Iran troops in Syria. On Thursday Iran shot missiles
from Golan Heights is a rocky plateau in south-western Syria, former
territory of Israel. However, the missiles were intercepted by Israel territory
causing no harm or damage to the country. Israel reports Iran’s actions on
Thursday were their reasoning for firing. This is causing the UN to become involved
and demand that Syria forces Iran to remove their military out of Syria. Overall,
the battle between Iran and Israel is only escalating and becoming more complex
over time.
